I am 30(ish). I was in a 2 year relationship that ended horribly when I found out he had lied and cheated (went to another country to be with an ex for a wild weekend, told me it was a business trip). He had cheated before in our relationship and I had caught him in many lies before as well. He would never come clean, only make more lies to cover up, or blame me for his actions once caught. I allowed the relationship to continue and I know I have no one to blame but myself.
We had been appart with no contact on my part at least for a month. Then, one lonely sunday night (last weekend to be exact), I asked him out of the blue to come over for dinner and a movie. It felt great to be back in his arms. I fell back into the infatuation/puppy love stage all over again. It has been like this for almost a week now. I am thrilled to see him, stars and hearts when we hug-you know the deal. Needless to say he is happy and returns all affections. My Q is- WHAT THE HECK IS WRONG WITH ME. This guy is awful for me. He has done things that are unforgivable in a relationship over and over again. He never appologised or even exposed the full truth thus a long term relationship is not an option with him if I respect myself and want a happy healthy future. I know this is wrong of me but why do I feel this puppy love for a man that hurt me and is unhealthy for me?
Any psycology mumbo jumbo for these actions? (other than I am a foolish idiot?)
